  PnP at a dinner party. No detailed notes. Rich, smooth. Nice complex spices. Long finish.

  Dry, medium-bodied, light tannins, a little too acidic, though this mellows after about an hour after decanting. Red cherries, light oak, some green pepper. Nice long finish.

  It is not a Napa cabernet. But it is very good. What we enjoyed most about the wine was its balance and restraint. It did not assault you with fruit. It gave us subtlety and nuance. Very enjoyable.

  Wine required decanting for over two hours. Improved even more the next day. The wine is a dark garnet color. There is no sediment in the bottle. Detected red currant, cassis, flint, oak and cinnamon on the nose. Plenty of fruit and spice on the palate like plum, cherry and cinnamon to drink with or without food. The body is medium/full with a smooth texture. Finish is decent, medium to long. The wine has medium acidity which suggests that this will still improve with 4-5 years in the bottle. Drink now or in the future.
